Chapter 226: An inexplicable surge of enthusiasm surged from the bottom of my heart
Deep in the ancient courtyard gently embraced by the moonlight, two figures quietly intertwined in the night, as if they were fine threads inadvertently scattered by fate, quietly weaving an unknown emotion.
The night breeze blew gently, bringing with it the coolness of early summer and the sweet fragrance of flowers, quietly seeping into every inch of the air and also quietly sneaking into the hearts of the two.
"Ajin, do you know how many unknown secrets are hidden under the night?"
Chu Yunlan's voice was low and magnetic. He leaned against the quaint window frame, his eyes deep, as if he could see into the deepest secrets of people's hearts.
The moonlight sprinkled on his body, giving him a layer of silver glow and adding a touch of otherworldly temperament.
On the opposite side, the man called Ajin was lowering his head to sort out the books in his hands. Upon hearing this, his fingertips paused slightly, then he looked up, and a complex emotion flashed in his clear eyes.
"Yunlan, why do we need to keep secrets between you and me? I have always understood your thoughts."
His voice was as gentle as jade, with a subtle tenderness and firmness.
........
However, beneath this calm lies a turbulent undercurrent of emotions.
Chu Yunlan's eyes unconsciously fell on Ajin's fair wrist, which was inadvertently exposed when she was tidying up the books, and an indescribable throbbing surged in his heart.
He had never expected that he would develop such unusual feelings for this guard who had always been known for his loyalty and calmness.
An inexplicable surge of heat surged from the bottom of my heart, like a flower suddenly blooming in spring, instantly occupying my entire heart and could no longer be ignored.
The heat quickly spread throughout his body, making Chu Yunlan's face look unusually rosy in the moonlight, like a peach blossom just blooming in the morning light, with a bit of shyness and unknown emotions.
"Ajin..."
He whispered softly, with a tremor in his voice that he himself hadn't noticed.
"What... did you do to me?" This sentence was a joke, a test, and an expression of the emotions deep in his heart that he dared not touch easily.
Upon hearing this, Ajin dropped the scroll from his hand, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.
He knelt down hurriedly, with a hint of begging in his voice:
"Master, I... I have no intention of offending you."
He pursed his lips tightly, trying to suppress the waves in his heart, but his Adam's apple rolled involuntarily, revealing his inner tension and anxiety.
Seeing this, Chu Yunlan felt both amused and distressed.
He walked slowly to Ajin, reached out and helped him up. Their eyes met at this moment, as if there were thousands of words unspoken.
"Ajin, why should we be so formal with each other? Besides, if there really is something going on, it's my own will."
There was unquestionable firmness and tenderness in his tone.
After saying that, he took the spoon from Ajin's hand. It was the medicinal porridge that Ajin had prepared for him.
He imitated Ajin, gently scooped up a spoonful, put it to his mouth to cool it down carefully, and then brought it to Ajin's lips.
This action made Ajin's whole body stiff, as if she had forgotten to breathe.
He looked at Chu Yunlan's eyes that were full of tenderness and expectation, and finally slowly opened his mouth and gently sipped the porridge into his mouth.
The warmth and sweetness of the porridge melted on the tip of the tongue, and seemed to warm the air between the two people.
Seeing this, Chu Yunlan curled up a satisfied smile at the corner of his mouth, and then slowly approached A Jin, so close that he could feel their breaths intertwining.
Ajin's cheeks flushed again, and that blush was like the morning glow, beautiful and moving.
At this moment, Chu Yunlan's lips gently touched Ajin's. It was a gentle yet domineering kiss.
A Jin was shocked, then closed his eyes, letting the emotion flow between them.
Chu Yunlan held the back of Ajin's head and deepened the kiss, as if he wanted to pour all his emotions into it.
However, when the kiss ended, both of them fell into a brief silence.
A Jin lowered her head, not daring to look directly into Chu Yunlan's eyes, feeling mixed emotions.
He is well aware of his identity and position, and he understands the possible consequences of this emotion.
Chu Yunlan looked at Ajin with a complicated expression, which showed both the joy of getting a response and the worry about the uncertainty of the future.
"Ajin, you..."
Chu Yunlan hesitated to speak. He didn't know how to start the conversation so as not to hurt Ajin and at the same time express his true thoughts.
A Jin raised his head and looked at Chu Yunlan with a firm gaze:
"Master, no matter what the future holds, Ajin will be by your side, protecting you until the last moment."
His voice was soft but full of unquestionable firmness.
Chu Yunlan felt a surge of warmth in his heart when he heard this. He held A Jin's hand tightly, tears glistening in his eyes:
"Ajin, having you is enough. From now on, no matter the wind or rain, we will move forward side by side."
As the night deepens, the shadows of the flowers in the courtyard sway in the wind, as if silently blessing the couple.
Chu Yunlan and A Jin stood side by side in front of the window, looking at the starry sky outside, their hearts filled with unprecedented tranquility and satisfaction.
They knew that Chu Yunlan gently stroked Ajin's hand and said softly: "Ajin, we may face many difficulties in the future, but as long as we support each other, we will be able to overcome everything."
Ajin nodded, a determined look on his face.
At this time, a breeze blew, bringing some petals.
Chu Yunlan reached out his hand, caught a petal, and handed it to A Jin:
"Just like this petal, even if it withers, it still remains beautiful. Our feelings will be the same. No matter how many storms we go through, they will never fade."
A Jin took the petals and carefully kept them. He looked at Chu Yunlan with deep affection in his eyes:
"Master, I will always be with you."
In this quiet night, the two of them were in tune with each other, as if the whole world belonged only to them.
They believe that no matter what the future holds, their love will be as bright and eternal as the stars in the night sky.
